Message | we are against the carring of fire arms in public for "personal protection" if nobody carries fire arms then there will be no need for protection. Gun crime is on the rise in all urban areas why do you wish to incourage it? |

Message | There will be civil unrest at the moment caused by the collapse of the facist reigme. So why would we want to arm people? This will lead to armed rival gangs causing the same fear people knew under the facists. |
